Natalie's Score: 92/100

At $19, Avignonesi Cantaloro 2019 is a great value, dry, medium-bodied red wine blend from the Tuscany wine region. Vegan-friendly and produced from organically grown Merlot, Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon (55%/33%/12%), the wine is bright and focused with ripe red cherry, blackberry, plum, dried tobacco leaf, anise spice with a kiss of chocolate and mint on the finish. Tannins are fine and velvety. The wine was aged up to 12 months in oak casks and barrels. Enjoy it through 2029 .

Food pairings: roast pork, hard cheeses, veal Porterhouse.
